A few months ago, I started adding numbers to express the degree of my love to whoever that special someone is. I started with 10... Mummy, I love you ten (as in a score of 10/10).
Then, it was increased to 100 and subsequently, 1000. Mummy, I love you one hundred thousand.
Recently, the numbers have skyrocketed to the -ions... million, billion, trillion etc. and even "all the numbers" (my own words for infinity).
From the simple I love you, I'm now fond of saying I love you one thousand, one million, billion, trillion and all the big numbers! I say it so often that sometimes the phrase loses its true meaning. This is evident in one of my recent conversations with mummy...
Me: Mummy...
Mummy: Hmmm?
Me: Mummy...
Mummy: Yes?
Me: Mummy....
Mummy: WHAT?
Me: I love you one million, trillion and all the big numbers *smile* Actually I want to tell you something else but I've forgotten what I want to say so I just say I love you first lah *grin*
It works well as a conversation "filler" too hehe!
A few weeks ago, daddy came across this comic strip "Pickles" (it's one of mummy's favourite comic strips) where Nelson the boy said something similar. What a coincidence! Or do many other kids say the same thing too?
Nelson is so like me... but I guess I'm much more "generous" than him hehe!
Chloe is so generous and sweet. My girls just said "I love you most".
